If it turns out that aquaTK is really that bad, we'll have to force MacOS X
users to use Tkinter under X11 instead. In my testing, that's what I used
and it seems just fine.

At the time the GUI code was written, it was the only cross platform
choice. I'm afraid we won't have time to switch.

P.S. I still haven't had time to get everything packaged up yet, but hope
to get to it soon. Then there's the windows version...blah.
